The financial industry is a pioneer in the application of security monitoring technology. Its security development history essentially reflects the evolution of the security industry, and its development trends can, to some extent, represent a bellwether for the entire security sector. Currently, crimes targeting banks in China are on the rise, with increasingly diversified, violent, and sophisticated methods. Major cases such as theft, violent robbery, embezzlement, and financial fraud are frequent, directly threatening the lives and property of the public and the stability of the entire social and economic order. Existing bank security systems primarily rely on video capture and storage. These systems are relatively independent, with very limited information sharing and low levels of联动 (linkage/initiative), intelligence, and centralized management, essentially constituting passive monitoring. The systems primarily provide evidence for post-incident investigations and cannot effectively prevent or stop serious violent incidents targeting banks (such as the Wuhan Construction Bank bombing and the Nanjing bank shooting).
Furthermore, because branches and sub-branches cannot share surveillance image information, higher-level units cannot promptly and comprehensively grasp the situation once an incident occurs at a branch. Moreover, various high-tech crimes now pose a significant threat to the financial operations of banks.
